Coming Soon! The First Trailer For LeBron James’ ‘Shut up and Dribble’ Documentary

While LeBron James kicks off his first season with the Los Angeles Lakers, he returns with a new look at his upcoming documentary. Showtime recently released the first trailer for LeBron’s upcoming documentary, ‘Shut Up and Dribble.’ The title of the documentary was taken for comments made by Fox News host Laura Ingraham, who criticized LeBron James’ anti-Trump position. The documentary will be narrated by former ESPN star Jemele Hill and directed by Gotham Chopra. The three-part series will take a deeper look at the social and political activism among NBA players, as well as the league’s place in culture. Showtime issued a press release.

They said “The controversy [Ingraham’s comments] serves as a prologue to the series as it chronicles the modern history of the NBA and its players, starting with the 1976 merger of the freewheeling ABA and the more conventional NBA. The league soon became an incubator for many of its top athletes to grow their brands beyond the court, becoming powerful players in commerce and fashion, and transcending the game to become cultural icons.” The statement went on to say “Shut Up and Dribble charts this evolution through the experience of basketball players, who by taking control of their own destinies have helped to bring about social change and make their own statements in the current political climate.”

The documentary was produced by SpringHill Entertainment partners LeBron James, Maverick Carter, and Rich Paul. Look for the debut of ‘Shut Up and Dribble’ on Showtime November 3 at 9 p.m. EST. Check out the trailer below and stay tuned for more on this coming soon.
